11 Best Hairsprays

The competition for best hairspray is stiff, but these products hold up, say our readers

No. 2: John Frieda Luxurious Volume All Out Hold Hairspray, $6.49 TotalBeauty.com Average Member Rating: 9.0*
Why: Reviewers rave that this spray is "like cement" because it gives hair hold "without being overly sticky." One reader guarantees that this hairspray "will hold your hair in place" no matter what. "Humidity, windy weather, rain -- you name it," she says. Another reader swears, "If you like big hair, you won't want to miss this!"

Sebastian Shaper is a good hairspray but I cannot stand the smell. I've never understood the following for Elnet either. I don't get the best results and it too smells bad. My favorite is Sexy Hair Soy Touchable hair spray.

Helpful article; there are so many hairsprays on the market making the same claims that is it nearly impossible to decide which to choose. I swear by Phyto haircare products, though - the shampoo and conditioner leave my hair so clean and fresh, and the styling products hold beautifully without weighing my hair down. It is liberating to feel your hair flow freely without worrying that movement will cause frizziness and dullness or simply mess your hair up.
